About Dal Lake in Srinagar

Resplendent with beauty, Dal Lake in Srinagar is one of the most visited tourist destinations in Kashmir valley. The exceptional charm and exquisite surroundings of Dal Lake attract tourists from all over the world. It is also the second largest lake in Jammu and Kashmir that offers a picturesque and mesmerizing view of the majestic mountains and its exotic surroundings to the travelers.

Shikaras at Dal Lake Srinagar are the cultural symbol of Kashmir, just like the Venetian gondolas. Travelers will also come across many oarsmen in colorful Phi Ran, which is a long embroidered woolen gown and a Shikaras with colorful cushions and floral canopies.

The best time for Dal Lake Srinagar is from April to June as the weather is pleasant and cool to help you explore the beauty and serenity of the place. The temperature during this time of the month varies between 10?C to 30?C. The winters are too cold in Dal Lake Srinagar as the temperature drops down to minus 10 degree Celsius and the frozen Dal Lake becomes the cricket playground. There are no fees for Dal Lake Srinagar, but to enjoy the Shikara ride on Dal Lake, tourists might need to spend some money.

    Petals of chinar.. a hotel in srinagar and our package, They delivered the water bottles after three hours. If we order non-vegetarian food, that's what we should get, but in many places we get vegetarian food. Plz tell the agency to be serious about basic services. Hotel of sonamarg its best,also

    Kashmir

    Amit's 5 days trip to Srinagar

    Overall the trip to Kashmir is nice and a must visit place for the travelers once in a lifetime. The place is really a heaven but need certain points of improvements regarding uncertainty/ unforeseen events, safety & security, overprice/overbudget places & over tip culture everywhere despite o
    f best services. Trip was organized fine by 'Travelancer kashmir' company via agent Iqra madam initially and then Ishrat madam, however there are some issues wrt itinerary provided by the company regarding compliances/ follow up of hotels ratings and their hospitality/ services which needs to be taken seriously further in future for other Travelers.
